Burnham-On-Sea residents have been warned to expect heavy rain and strong winds over the next few days.
The Met Office has issued a set of weather warnings across three days for the south west region from 3pm today (Thursday Dec 5th), including the Burnham-On-Sea area.
Storm Darragh has prompted an amber warning to be issued on Saturday for our area, bringing winds of up to 80mph.
A spokesperson says: “A deep low may cross England and Wales from Friday afternoon, clearing to the east Saturday night. The low may bring a period of strong winds to much of the warning area, with some heavy rain likely.”
“Winds may quite widely gust to around 40-50 mph inland but locally could gust in excess of 60 mph, whilst around coasts, winds may gust to 60-70 mph. The wind and rain may cause disruption to travel, with difficult driving conditions likely.”
The Burnham-On-Sea weather forecast shows a blustery few days.
